One Netflix executive says the live stream issues during the Jake Paul vs. Mike Tyson event served as a learning experience.

Netflix was on most sports fans' minds when its glitchy, buffering mess of a stream marred the Jake Paul-Mike Tyson boxing match. It was a bad showing. Making it more ominous was that the streamer was set to air a pair of NFL games 40 days later.

After streaming issues during the Jake Paul-Mike Tyson fight last month on Netflix prompted concerns about the company’s ability to handle large events, it has largely avoided problems during the first game of the day between Kansas City and Pittsburgh. The stream did not lag and came through sharp and in high quality.

The NFL is taking steps to mitigate the impact of buffering and lag on users. Whether the attempt actually works remains to be seen.

Legendary boxer Mike Tyson is reportedly being sued for $1.59M after his lackluster fight against Jake Paul. Jake Paul and Mike Tyson’s November tilt was a massive hit for Netflix with the event crashing the streaming platform, but the match could have some major consequences for the 58-year-old.

Marc Berman is a New York-based reporter who covers media. On the heels of the record viewership for his boxing bout with Jake Paul, Netflix has announced that Mike Tyson will be the subject of an upcoming documentary series.

Netflix has become the go-to streaming home for sports docuseries, with shows like Drive to Survive, Full Swing, Receiver, Simone Biles Rising, and Enigma: Aaron Rodgers all delivering substantial viewership and driving interest in their respective sports and stars.
